Absolutely not.

Cables used for the keyboards are ADB cables.  Cables used for the printer
and modem ports, while the connector looks similar, are *NOT* ADB cables.

The printer and modem ports are regular serial ports, and you can generally
hook up any serial device to either one.

You can not use ADB cables in the serial ports, and you can not use serial
cables in the ADB ports.  The easiest way to tell the difference is by
looking at the pin layout at each connector.

ADB cables have four pins where the serial cables have eight pins.


You can however use S-Video cables for ADB.
